Industrial Gas Services & Products
Customized Solutions for Your Industrial Gas Needs
Explore UIG’s diverse range of services. From on-site gas production to specialized engineering and consulting, each service is crafted to meet the unique demands of industries, ensuring efficiency, quality, and innovation at every step.
Industrial Gas Services
On-Site Industrial Gas Production
On-site industrial gas production provides significant savings by eliminating the hidden costs associated with purchasing bulk liquid oxygen, nitrogen or argon. This efficient solution ensures immediate delivery through your in-plant pipeline, reducing inefficiencies and enhancing operational reliability. Liquid storage and vaporization systems supplement on-site production during demand surges or maintenance shutdowns, optimizing your overall gas supply strategy.
Industrial Gas Consulting
At UIG, our goal is to make your industrial gas experience easier. While we would love to provide you with the gas supply your company needs, we understand that the nature of gas supply contracts don’t always put you in a position to act on that immediately. UIG is happy to provide consulting services to help answer any questions you have about your current or future gas supply.
Engineering & Technical Services
UIG provides comprehensive engineering and technical services for industrial gas plants, covering all stages from project development to ongoing maintenance. Their expertise includes detailed design, project management, installation, and start-up support, ensuring efficient and timely project delivery. UIG also offers customized solutions to meet each client’s unique needs, emphasizing quality, reliability, and cost-effective optimization. With a focus on long-term success, UIG’s services ensure that industrial gas plants operate efficiently and effectively.

Industrial Gas Products
Cryogenic Air Separation Plants (ASU)
Cryogenic Air Separation Units (ASUs) offer an efficient solution for on-site industrial gas needs, especially for high production rates. Suitable for volumes as low as 30 tons per day and essential for requirements exceeding 200 tons per day, ASUs can supply nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, optimizing cost when multiple gases are needed. With over 30 years of experience, our team can customize ASUs to meet specific flow, pressure, and purity requirements, including the capability to produce liquid backup products.
Cryogenic Air Separation Plants (ASU)
Vacuum Pressure Swing Adsorption (VPSA) Oxygen Plant
Vacuum-pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) units are ideal for producing oxygen with purities between 90 and 95%, alongside argon and nitrogen. They are best suited for volumes ranging from 20 to 100 tons per day, with the option to combine multiple units for higher capacities. VPSA systems offer a cost-effective alternative to cryogenic ASUs, particularly when high-purity oxygen isn’t necessary. They are perfect for applications utilizing oxygen for combustion or chemical processes that can tolerate the additional argon and nitrogen.

Cryogenic Storage Systems
UIG provides a range of new ASME-coded cryogenic storage tanks for liquid nitrogen (LIN), liquid oxygen (LOX), and liquid argon (LAR), with capacities from 300 to 100,000 gallons. They also offer vaporizers and Liquid CO2 storage tanks in sizes from 3 to 50 tons. UIG offers flexible commercial options, including direct sales, turnkey design and installation, and leasing. Their expert team is ready to assess your needs and deliver the ideal solution.
Merchant Liquid Products
UIG proudly owns and operates ASUs around the United States, many of which produce dedicated liquid product in addition to the gaseous products they feed direct to pipeline customers. These additional liquid products are available for wholesale and can be picked up at one of our liquid producing plants.
